Extend the RTI deadline of 19 March for contractors and employees for the CJRS

Closed 52 signatures

What the petition asks

Contractors who recently changed over to an umbrella company in March or employees who started a new position or new contract in March, should be included in the furlough scheme regardless of the fact that an RTI submission wasn’t submitted before 19th of March.

By imposing this requirement, thousands of employees are being unfairly excluded from the furlough scheme and is putting us all in a seriously risky position. This requirement of the 19th of March needs to be moved to include employees who received their first pay in April for work completed in March.
